The Old Home Store was at the lovely, lovely Vintage Bazaar last Saturday.

Thank you to all of my customers - returning and new.

The Vintage American Christmas Pins (brooches) went down a storm, so there will be some very festive people down west this year.

The American vintage childrens' items were also very popular - need to replace a lot of that stock on my next buying trip in January.

Lots of Christmas cookies will also be baked as customers tackle their newly acquired vintage American cutters and springerle. The excellent Christmas recipe box with vintage recipe collection for the festive season also went to a highly delighted regular customer.

Houses will be adorned with vintage and antique hyacinth vases - I was suprised that quite a number of customers didn't know what they were, and how hyacinths are forced for Christmas flowering.

What a fabulous turn-out for 'Christmas at the General Store' in the Cozy Club, Gerrard's Cross.

Thank you to Chris for arranging such a fab event, and thank you to all new customers who came to buy from The Old Home Store. I hope to see you all again - either at Devizes, or Hambleden before Christmas.

It was a pleasure to be involved in such a well organised and beautifully formed event - and not least of which the support it gives to the childhood cancer charity, 'William's Fund.'
